I think you hit the nail on the head with this one statement: "the CURRENT
state of the IPv6".

The real problem is that IPv6 is still evloving (closing the IPv6 working
group non-withstanding). Thus new changes start to happen and new
discussions about implementiaton occure all the time as people learn what
works and what does not.

Books takes months to write and more to publish - by the time they are in
print the IPv6 world has moved on.
RFCs are not much better, they also take months to get written, then can
take years to be approved (the only one I was part of took more than 2 years
from conception until approval).

Maybe a wiki or other online / real-time solution would be best, but this
will require someone to manage it and people who have a clue to monitor
(moderate) it, and most of these people are either doing it or are working
on improving it (i.e. writing RFCs).
